|discussion=<p><i>Crocanthemum corymbosum</i> is unique in <i>Crocanthemum</i> because of its corymbose inflorescence of long-pedicelled petaliferous flowers overtopping subsessile, apetalous flowers. Other species may produce long-pedicelled petaliferous flowers; the inflorescence shape is different. The two flower types develop synchronously, unlike in other species except <i>C. glomeratum</i>. The bicolored leaves, dark adaxially and pale abaxially, are a strong field and herbarium character.</p>
